I like the episode where they kidnapped that author after he crashed his car near the bar and broke his legs so that he couldn't escape and forced him to write a novel bringing back their favorite character from death.

I just got the first 2 episodes of the first season down. It's been many years since I've seen them. They are certainly not bad at all. If you compare them to the other seasons then yeah, they're not as good, but they in no way suck and are complete poo poo. Very watchable still.

Charlie: "Yeah, he's got an egg-" *vomits blood all over her again* Plus, you've got Mac eating chimichangas out of a trash bag, Dee trying to Pretty Woman Roxy, and pretty much everything Roxy says. "What're you cocks lookin' at?"

Charlie has no moral or intellectual barometer, which is why the Flowers for Charlie episode works so perfectly

One thing that I like is that the show can get away with controversial humor like the Danny Glover black face thing solely because their characters are the most loving awful people who have no morals and it's clearly visible that they are extremely selfish, greedy, and egotistically insane. So it's almost expected for them to do abhorrent things. I love it.

VendaGoat posted:He is literally a psychopath. Oh yeah. This. It's pretty easy to see that he's a textbook narcissist, among other things, but if I remember correctly they show him to be completely delusional as well. I watched seasons 1-3 last night where people mention him being "cool" back in high school and stuff, but I think later on they allude to him mis-remembering or completely creating his own fantasy past and he was in reality a loser or something. I could be wrong though I don't really remember. Either way, the dude is a psychopath.

It's not snidely whiplash twirling his mustache. I agree with you, I just want you to understand, he's portraying a perfect representation of one.

VendaGoat posted:The literal definition of a psychopath. Which is why he chose to not use his real name as the character's name like Mac and Charlie did, because Glenn Howerton acknowledges that Dennis is a loathsome and terrible creature and wants no association with his real life self and that character. Also, the episode where he and Dee do a podcast and Cricket comes on to be a guest for a box of lemons is filled with great moments of the veneer cracking in subtle ways on Dennis
